Improve your German quickly by focusing on what matters to you!

Dive into suspenseful stories & individualized learning.

Learning vocabulary is tedious. And usually not very efficient. Our app StoryPlanet Deutsch solves the vocabulary dilemma! The best way to build your vocabulary is by learning words in a relevant context. Our mini-stories in German provide just that: engaging stories with lots of useful vocabulary and exercises.


Step by step to better German

  1. READ: Choose from different mini-stories. Every story has 5 chapters. It takes about 1 minute to read each chapter.
  2. GET DEFINITIONS: Click on any word in bold to get a definition in German that matches the meaning in that context.
  3. LEARN: Save words you don’t know in your personal learning list and practice them in a series of quiz-like exercises.

The best part is, you only focus on the vocabulary you don’t know, so the app never gets boring. Read and learn German wherever you are. All you need is your smartphone and our app StoryPlanet Deutsch.
